Spare Change

Sung to the Tune of Hot Fun in the Summer Time

Posted by Bryan

Yesterday was the first day of summer. And things have been a little heavy (content-wise) on the theology around here at Spare Change. And even though the first statement has nothing to do with the second, here's a list of tunes on my iPod with "summer" in the title:

• Summertime Blues, Alan Jackson


• The Boys of Summer, The Ataris


• Cruel Summer, Banarama


• Summer of '69, Bryan Adams


• Summer Lovin', Cast of Grease


• Summertime, DJ Jazzy Jeff & the Fresh Prince


• The Boys of Summer, Don Henly


• Summertime Blues, Eddie Cockran


• Summer Wind, Frank Sinatra


• That Summer, Garth Brooks


• Summertime, George Gershwin


• White Summer/Black Mountain Side, Led Zeppelin


• Summer in the City, Lovin' Spoonful


• Aspen Summer, Michael Jones


• Suddenly Last Summer, The Motels


• Summer Nights, Van Halen

I also have two of Donna Summer's biggest and best (Bad Girls and On the Radio), as well as a bit by Frank Caliendo about Madden & Summeral.

Ironically, I don't have Hot Fun in the Summertime by Sly & The Family Stone. I'll have to dig through my CDs and see if I have that summerwhere. And by saying this, I of course mean that I'll promptly forget about this and never undertake such an endeavor.

Those are just summer my thoughts. Any essential summer songs that I'm missing?
